Brian Idol

Brian Idol

Brian Idol (whose real name was Brian Arthur Hengel) was born August 31, 1949, in Minneapolis, Minnesota of German / Scandanavian stock.  

He grew up in northern Idaho, however, where he did mill & farm work during summer vacations from high school.  In 1966, right after graduation, he headed for Los Angeles, barely arriving at the downtown bus station (the gay equivalent to Schwabb's drugstore) when he was "discovered" by an alert model scout, Darby Summers. Taken immediately to the studio of Bob Carr (whose brief career in physique photography is poorly documented today), Brian agreed to pose, though he later told Bob Mizer that he had thought the physique pix & films Carr showed him were "disgusting."  Even so, after being launched on a beefcake career by Carr (who gave him his now-famous nom de pouch), Brian went on to pose for many other studios:  besides Carr and Mizer, Bruce and Milo did a considerable amount of work with him.  

As we see, most of these photos were nudes, and he did films (in & out of the pouch) both for AMG and Bruce--his 'at home' color film for the latter being particularly successful.  He stood 5' 11" and even though he looked heftier, usually weighed only 165-170 lbs.  Judging from his AMG-symbols chart, he must have commanded nice fees as a hustler, and he eventually got himself into trouble with drugs. By 1968 or so, he escaped total perdition by heading back to Minneapolis, where he worked in electrical engineering.  

The following year, Bob Mizer reported that Brian had licked the drug problem & was eager to get back to LA, but subsequent mentions of him (in 1973 & 1974) don't make it clear if he ever made it.  In any case, the photographic work already done on him had already established him as the 'idol' of many all over the world, truly one of the most popular models of his generation.

I’ve been trying to find updated info on Brian Idol.

Anyone know if he’s still alive? 

Anyone have information on his life after his brief modeling career?

I’m also interested in the years he spent as a hustler.

I’ve Googled Brian Hengel (including his date of birth), and found virtually no information about him.

 

Someone out there must know something about his years beyond the 1960’s.

Thank you for taking the time to read this,

Roger

So i was also wondering but we also have to take in account that he might have stepped away because he was pressured to. There's someone whos using what looks like a senior picture of him in Bonners Ferry named Brian Hengel-Lentz. I hope this helps ease your mind.

Winterpegan, thank you.

I followed that lead a couple of months ago. I saw some pictures of the Hengel-Lentz in question on his old MySpace profile.

His mention in Bonners Ferry had a follow up. The follow up basically said he was not affiliated with the company mentioned in the previous article. Very confusing.

 

The old class picture of Hengel-Lentz is definitely Brian Idol. Same person.

 

I hope Brian Idol, wherever he is today, realizes he had a major, positive impact on legions and generations of gay men.

He is an icon, with growing popularity (thanks to the Internet). 
 

I will continue my search for him. I will eventually piece together his puzzled existence.

Ultimately, I’d like to ask him a few questions. And tell him we appreciate the path he was set forth on. He’s an important part of the LGBTQ’s past.

He’s an idol

I found a video of Brian (circa mid 1960’s).

He strips, exercises, showers, lays on a bed.

 

anyone know of any other videos of him?

This is the first time I'm hearing of him, but I'm now invested in how he turned out, too! Glad that you located him. Is he well? Did you contact him at all? Just curious! 🙂
